Suicide bid outside police station

EAGLE Force busts drug supply chain
Hyderabad:Telangana EAGLE Force said it had uncovered an organised drug supply chain extending from the rural Koraput district in Odisha through Pachipenta in Vizianagaram to Hyderabad. The 36‑hour operation targeted the source, financial trail and supply network, while also supporting consumers through recovery.
EAGLE Force director Sandeep Shandilya said 23 consumers completed treatment at a de‑addiction centre and obtained rehabilitation certificates. Based on information from Satya Avinash, a cocaine and MDMA peddler, investigators found drugs were procured via WhatsApp, payments made through PhonePe, and Google Maps locations shared for collection through a “dead drop” system.
Human and technical intelligence gathered in June and July helped identify 31 carriers, key financial links and about 230 consumers. Five key persons linked to the Odisha supply network — Sanjya Mari, Kamesh Mari, Dambu Khora, Anasu Khara and Sethi Rakesh — along with one juvenile were arrested. On the consumer side, 100 persons were apprehended, of whom 80 tested positive and were referred for rehabilitation through court intervention under Section 64‑A of the NDPS Act.
Shandilya said the development marks a transition from enforcement to rehabilitation, giving individuals an opportunity to break away from addiction. The rehabilitation of 23 consumers demonstrates the importance of a coordinated approach involving law enforcement, de‑addiction centres, parents, healthcare professionals and the judiciary.
